The push will include hiring people to sell and explain the cloud offerings, Bloomberg says.

Greene said her personal focus is on "bringing everybody together so that we all know what we're doing."

Greene reportedly wants to make Google Cloud Platform less self-service, instead creating an enterprise team to get in front of the C-class and explain why they should host with the Chocolate Factory. That push will be backed by the usual "guess who's using our products?" story placements, which have begun with Google briefing The Wall Street Journal that it's signed Disney to the platform (paywalled).

Amazon has a big lead in the cloud services market; Bloomberg cites Morgan Stanley data putting its AWS revenue at US$8 billion annually, with Microsoft Azure second and Google Cloud Platform a distant third at $500 million.

Quadrupling its regions from four to sixteen will still leave Google behind Amazon, since the latter already has 12 regions and has announced plans for another five. ®
